This channeling is part of a Soul purpose reading with Saint-Germain.
It's reprinted here with our client's permission.

“Dear Saint-Germain, why am I having trouble choosing? All the ideas I have about what to do with my life lie scattered around me. Why can’t I get focused? What do I fear? I’m feeling so confused. Can you help me?”

Beloved friend, you say that your question is about choosing, but we say that it is about deciding. There is a difference between the two. Choices are made by your Soul, while human decisions can support these or not. We are going to explore this difference with you now.

Right now, you feel that there is a world of possibilities before you. You feel inspired, yet overwhelmed by these potentials.

Your secret fear is that by choosing to express yourself in one way, your other possibilities of expression may disappear – and you don’t want to limit yourself in any way. You also fear that you may choose wrongly, and then have to suffer the consequences for it.

We’d like to calm your fears by telling you that it’s not about choosing anything at all. Instead, it’s about making decisions. It’s about making decisions that support your Soul’s Choices.

Choosing or Deciding?

Choices are made by your Soul, while decisions are made by the human you.

Your Soul made choices to experience certain attributes of its Being, while incarnating as you. The earth plane is about experiencing your Soul’s Choices. That is why you are here. You ARE your Soul, having a human experience of Its Choices here on Earth.

Let’s suppose your Soul has chosen to experience the part of Its Being called Trust and Innocence in this lifetime. To do this, It incarnates as you – then allows you to express these qualities through your decisions and actions.

Your Soul comes to know the experience of Innocence and Trust, as you become more innocent and trusting in your dealings with others. This is how the human you collaborates with your Soul, its Divine Counterpart.

Sometimes the human you decides not to align with a Soul-level Choice. You can always say “no” to what the Soul offers. Your decision not to participate is always respected, just as your alignment is also honored. There is no judgment in either case. Only Love, for that is what the Soul is.

But your Soul does rejoice every time you decide to cooperate with its Choices. Your Soul rejoices, and you feel glad. The truth is that any time you feel joy, it is evidence you have aligned your personal decisions with the Choices of your Soul.

The Fundamental Decision

The fundamental decision confronting you now is this, “How will I express what my Soul has already chosen to experience?” And what has your Soul chosen, you ask?

At the core of your being, your Soul has chosen to step into the New You – to begin a New Life, expressing Itself fully as the human you on the physical plane.

The first sign of your awareness of this Choice is that you feel free to go out into the world again. To be active. To experience your Self fully.

Certainly, you may feel anxious or worried about what to do next with your life. But this time, you know it will be different. You know this because you are clear that you don’t want to repeat experiences from the past any more. Instead, you are ready to live your life as your Soul. To express yourself creatively and spontaneously in this lifetime.

The human you has come to remember Who You Really Are. You no longer deny it, or hide it from yourself. Instead, you align yourself with this awareness.

You are prepared to be done with difficulty. You recognize that you don’t need to explore the challenging paths any longer. You know Who You Are because you feel it, and you realize that you don’t need to prove it to yourself or anyone else, ever again.

Your Soul is ready to honor your new awareness and join you in this. It is patiently awaiting your decision. It is asking you, “How would you like experience, share, and express Who We Really Are, together?”

Step Aside for a Moment

We invite you to step aside and recognize that your past fears and future worries have no foundation in the Present. Bring your human self into the Now moment, and feel the freedom to express your Self in any way you desire.

Listen to your heart. It is inspired by your Soul, the One that has already chosen for you. Together they know how to bring joy and focus into your life. All you have to do is align yourself with this. It is a simple decision.

Trust, dear friend. And when you feel this trust, you will see for yourself what happens. You will see how easily your decisions come into alignment with the Choices already made by your Soul.

Staying Focused

Be willing to align your personal decisions with your Soul’s Choice to experience Life through you. If you let this be your focus, then you will not feel limited or scattered by anything you might decide to express.

Instead, you will find there are many ways for you to experience your Self – but that no one necessarily excludes the other, none distract you, and that many actually reinforce each other.

Be willing to express yourself as your Soul. This will unite everything. When this desire is your primary focus, any decision you make will automatically lead you to an experience of joy. Although your interests may change over time, your focus will remain the same – to express yourself as your Soul does, in this body and in this lifetime.

Remember: When you feel the need to make a decision, first step aside. Recall that All Is Well. Then have the intention to align with your Soul’s Choices and observe the effects this has upon your life. Greater ease and flow will be felt.

Have Confidence in Your Decisions

If you feel pressured by any decision you feel obligated to make, remind yourself that your Soul has already made the most important choice of all. It has chosen to enter into your life as the New and Authentic You. Have confidence that your decisions will support your Soul’s Choice with grace and ease.

Recall that when you doubt yourself, it only takes you away from remembering Who You Are.

When you are feeling scattered or limited in any way, and doubt your ability to decide correctly, just breathe deeply, and come back into this awareness. Trust that whatever decision you make is going to support your Soul perfectly, and be the right expression for you, too. Your Soul will guide you in this, and together you will bring greater joy, comfort, and satisfaction into your life. On this you can be certain.

We are Saint-Germain and Yeshua. And we thank you for your question.

Dear Alex and Dan,I finally subscribe to your blog.I enjoy reading it. It is always a tricky part when making a decision and to figure out if the decision is made from the heart or from the external factors. Most of time I get confused. To step aside is good way to find the answer but sometimes I step away for a long time until I feel good about the whole situation.

Thanks for the feedback and your kind words about this message on "Supporting Your Soul's Choices". It was a bit of a surprise for us to receive it, as well. We're so accustomed to feeling pressured to choose things in our best interest. We seldom cultivate the higher perspective -- the one that reminds us that decisions are a matter of aligning with our Souls' Choices, and that our Souls always have our best interests at heart.
